In addition to fresh fruits, veggies, eggs, pastries, treatment options for what ails you, a customer survey, and a drawing for a basket of produce and other goodies donated by the farmers and other vendors, this market will offer live music by local violinists Ella and Rhianna, and a fencing demonstration. The community is invited to “come for the food and stay for the fun!”
